90 Infantry Division (USA) German counter-attack Distroff
November 15th, and the Germans launched a still fierce counter-attack in an attempt to retake the town of Distroff in which elements of the 358th were positioned. Preceded by a heavy artillery preparation, the armored attack succeeded initially in splitting the defending garrison. Accurate artillery fire and the refusal of the out-numbered defenders to be moved from their positions drove the attacking regiment back.
